mitre-mcp: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

mitre-mcp AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from Montimage/mitre-mcp. It costs 815 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A repository instruction file for the Montimage MITRE MCP project. It describes the project layout, required commands, coding rules, and important invariants for its Python server and React frontend.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when navigating the repository, running its tests and builds, understanding where components belong, or checking project-specific implementation constraints.
Why use it?
It gives agents shared project context and prevents changes that could alter tool outputs, desynchronise the interface, or commit generated data and secrets.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions AGENTS.md.

This is Montimage/mitre-mcp's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on mitre-mcp itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything mitre-mcp configures →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

mitre-mcp AGENTS.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 59 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

AGENTS.md

Cross-agent rules for this repository. The recorded build, test, and install commands are pinned once in CLAUDE.md under ## Commands; the complete environment-variable inventory lives in CONTRIBUTING.md under ## Agent-runnable environment.

Project

MITRE ATT&CK MCP server: Python package mitre_mcp (requires Python >= 3.11) plus a React/Vite frontend in frontend/ (Node 24). Invariants: never change observed MITRE tool outputs, keep the model dropdown in sync with the manifests, and never commit generated data or secrets.

Commands

Run the commands of record verbatim from CLAUDE.md ## Commands — they are defined there once and referenced here rather than duplicated. For setup details and environment variable names, see CONTRIBUTING.md ## Agent-runnable environment.

Layout

  • mitre_mcp/ — server package: mitre_mcp_server.py thin entry point and public re-export surface; data.py download/cache/indices, models.py result schemas, server.py the mcp object + lifespan, tools.py the nine tools, cli.py argv/banner/signals, http.py transport security + ASGI app, config.py env-driven config, validators.py
  • tests/ — pytest suite; tests/integration/ needs a committed STIX fixture
  • frontend/ — React/Vite chat UI with its own lint and build pipeline
  • clients/ — Python and Node.js sample clients
  • scripts/ — installer and ATT&CK data download helpers
  • data/ — git-ignored ATT&CK cache; never commit it

Conventions

  • Minimal, focused diffs; conventional commits type(scope): description (#N).
  • Branch prefix follows the issue type: fix/, feat/, refactor/, docs/, test/, chore/.
  • The recorded commands may still be RED — restoring green is P0 work; a red baseline is not your regression.

Constraints

  • Repository etiquette — never commit or push without being asked, never add Co-Authored-By trailers — is pinned in CLAUDE.md ## Constraints and applies to every agent.
  • Never copy secret values out of .env or the .mcpregistry_*token files — environment variable names only.
  • Never commit tests/data/ or data/ contents — both are git-ignored by design.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
